Chapter 17 – Rambil
Vivta growled at Daikon, her eyes focusing on the door "Get out of my way." Viva said angrilly. Daikon scowled at her. "No, you're still hurt. You can barely walk." As if to prove him wrong, Vivta took a step away from the bed she had ocupied only moments ago. Her legs wobbled slightly. "I can finish healing on our way to Rikon." The female saiyan said coldly. Daikon grinned, and shook his head. "If you can get past me, we'll leave." He smirked when he saw her gimace. It had been just over a day and a half since Vivta had fought with Malcolumn. She was healing quickly, but still wasn't well enough in Daikon's opinion.
Vivta's grimace turned into a sudden grin, causing Daikon to tense up. She lunged at him, just as someone opened the door. Poor Ri was nearly boldozed over as Daikon jumped backwards, to avoid Vivta's attack. She promply fell on the ground with a grunt, and remained in the door way. Ri looked at the couple oddly, a puzzled look on his face. "Did I come at a bad time?" Ri questioned. He grinned when Vivta attempted to stand up. Daikon sighed loudly, and helped her up. He kept her supported beside him, an arm around her waist, while she drapped an arm across his shoulders. "What brings you all the way up here?" Vivta asked before wincing. "Well, the guys, Pan and I all went to make sure the ship was ok. While I actually checked it, Yiko thought he'd turn on the ship..." Ri looked at them nervously. Vivta's jaw dropped. "Well, it's s-still there, right?" Daikon stuttered. Ri nobbed quickly "Yes, of course. It's just that, when he turned it on, the raidar made some weird beeping noises. Yiko asked Trunks about it, 'cause his mother was the one that made the ship. Trunks wasn't sure about it, but Gohan knew. Apparently Bulma told Gohan everything about the ship 'cause he's reliable or something." Ri stopped speaking when he noticed that Vivta was glaring at him. Daikon looked irritated. "Well, anyways, the ship was first designed when they first we to Namek. Saiyan problems, apparently." Ri shrugged and continued "The radar was made to pick up saiyan space pods, the ones that Freiza used to have his cronies use. But, uh, the ship picked up a signal from a space pod." Vivta's eye's widened, but she didn't interupt him. "Now, either it's another saiyan, which I highly doubt, or, Rikon sent someone here." Vivta's eyebrows narrowed, and she glared daggers at Daikon. "You can't stop me from going to this." She stated. Daikon frowned, then sighed "Are the others still with the ship?" Daikon asked instead, turning his gaze back towards Ri. "No. They found where the pod is going to land. They're already on their way there. They told me to come back and get you guys." Ri replied. He sounded slightly nervous. Vivta knew why. If it was one of Rikon's men, Ri might be recogonized. "Let's get going."

Rambil woke up from his gas-induced sleep. The computer operating system of his space pod stated that Sargonisan was only a few minutes away. Ri, Rambil thought to himself, I hope you're down there.
The space pod landed, and Rambil waited patiently for the door to open. He climbed out, and stretched his stiff mucsles. Now, all he had to do was find Ri. Rambil grimaced. Where would he start looking?
Rambil froze when he saw several people land around him. It took him a moment to realize who they were. Five were from earth, and two were Vivta's friends. Rambil's gaze rested on the man in front of him. The same guy he had fought on earth. Vegeta. "What are you doing here?" Vegeta demanded coldly. Rambil frowned at him "I'm not here to fight, if that's what you're wondering." Rambil replied, he held Vegeta's glare with one of his own. "Then why the heck are you here? Did Rikon send you?" A girl demanded. She was maybe a few years younger than him, and looked about ready to rip him apart. "No, Rikon didn't send me. I came on my own." Rambil replied levely. The gril froze, a worried look on her face. Yiko glared at Rambil, and growled "Leave now, you aren't welcome here." Rambil shook his head slowly.

Ri couldn't believe what he was seeing. He arrived where the others were, both Daikon and Vivta following close behind. Facing Vegeta was his brother. Why was he here? Did Rikon know where he was? As if hearing his startled thoughts, Rambil turned to face him. Both brothers stared at each other. "Why did you come?" Ri demanded, trying to keep his voice steady. "I knew it was you, I wasn't sure before but-" Ri interupted his brother angrilly "Did Rikon send you? Did he recognize me? "No, Ri, he didn't." Rambil said truthfully. Ri looked towards Vivta for help. She was standing on her own, though she looked a little un steady. Daikon stood close by in case he was needed. "Everyone, leave. Rambil, Ri and I have some things to talk about." Vivta said in her normal I'm-the-boss tone of voice. The fighters from earth began to protest, but Yiko and Daikon quickly ushered them away. Vegeta gave his sister a warning glance, but left without comment.
Rambil didn't wait for either Ri or Vivta to speak "Why did you leave, Ri?" Ri scowled at his brother, and replied "Because, I couldn't stand it there." Rambil scowled in return "You think you're the only one who felt that way?" Ri looked away, and Vivta spoke "Rambil, if you didn't like it there, why didn't you leave?" Rambil didn't reply, and stared at his brother, ignoring her. "Dad's gone mad, you know. He's totally lost it." Ri tensed slightly, and looked at Rambil "How bad is it?" Rambil raised his chin slightly, and pointed to the bruises that circled his neck, evidence of when Rikon nearly strangled him. "Crazy enough. It's not safe for anyone there. He's had some of Freiza's old scientists create these 'ki modifiers'. Anyone steps out of line, they have no choice of ever stepping over it again." Ri frowned, a worried look on his face "Is that why you came here?" Rambil shook his head. "I only stayed there, cause I didn't know what else to do." Vivta shook her head slightly, and said "So, you thought you'd come here and join up with us?" Rambil looked at her sharply "I thought I'd see how Ri was doing, and then help get rid of the man that killed my mother. Two friends of mine will help." Vivta raised and eyebrow "Rext and Matrim." Rambil stated. Vivta nobbed slowly. Ri stared at her for a moment, then said slowly "Dose Rikon know we're coming?" Rambil shrugged. "I think so. He's probably already prepared for you guys." Ri looked down, not sure what to say next. Vivta took a deep breath, and asked nervously "Did you see a child there?" Rambil gave her an odd look "A child?" Vivta nobbed her head quickly "Probably looks kinda like Daikon. Red hair-" "Oh, you mean 'the fire child'?" Rambil smiled and continued "Dad's been having him trained since he could walk. Powerful kid, strikes me as rather un happy, though. But Ally takes care of him." A sad look crossed Vivta's face. "Ally?" "Yeah, she's kinda like his nanny. She's also some sort of telepath, or something of the sort." Vivta looked confussed, and sighed "Rambil, I want you to go with Ri back to the Inn we're staying at. Tell them all everything you know about Rikon's defences. I want them all prepared." Ri looked at her sharply "Viv, where are you going?" Vivta laughed, and replied "I'm still stiff from fighting against Malcolumn. I'm gonna walk back, and see if I'm well enough to fight in a few days time." Ri nobbed slowly, and looked at Rambil "You heard her, lets go." The two shot into the air, flying so fast that they only looked like blurs. Vivta looked down quietly, and shook her head "Sorry I lied to you, Ri. But I've got other apointments." Vivta's eyes rested on Rambil's space pod.
******************************************** Well? How was that? So, I think I should explain why I wasn't able to write for like two weeks? Well, I got kinda grounded, and couldn't use the internet and such. And over spring break too. But anyways, there's more to write. C'ya!
